lyrics

The linen was white as snow
It was opening night for my one man show

The man from LIFE is here
Just pretend you’re working, my dear
We have fifty million red-blooded readers
And every week, they’re screaming ‘feed us’

You’re this week’s dream so give us that serious frown
You would let fifty million dreamers down

Do you know what your problem is
You have no respect for fame
No one tells me how to drive
You’re sitting next to a household name

People like me we have our own code
When we’re flying down Fireplace Road
I think I see Jesus and he’s standing near the rails
And when I hit the gas I’m buying the hammer and the nails

I had to take your innocence with me
Number 32, 1950
